BROWSING: 5G Beamforming

5G New Radio (NR)'s massive MIMO and beam management support are both essential to 5G mmWave carrier deployment strategies.

Samsung and Spark have been working together on 5G trials since 2019 Samsung announced its first network installation in New Zealand, where it has worked with Spark New Zealand to launch a 5G network in Christchurch, the most populous city in South Island of New...

mmWave signal repeaters are a network asset, because mmWave's weakness is also its strength Increasing network capacity through the addition of more cell sites is critical for achieving the coverage and speeds promised by 5G. However, the sheer number of sites needed to get the...

Introduction  The performance specification for 5G is much more demanding than for previous generations of mobile networks, requiring high data rates, (up to 20 Gbps), very low latency, (< 1 mSec), ultra-high reliability, energy efficiency and very high numbers of connected devices. To meet these...

5G beamforming a critical technology for fixed wireless and mobility Testing beamforming is tricky but crucial, because the technology introduces a level of complexity on both the infrastructure side and the device side that demands careful characterization and verification before 5G can be successfully deployed. “Every...

For operators, 5G is a massive investment in hardware and software based on the promise it will deliver totally new user experiences that take advantage of significant increases in throughput and decreases in latency. One key aspect of delivering and monetizing these new network...
